“Since their original release, Shenmue I & II have established a passionate following and are revered as one of gaming’s greatest series of all time,” Sega wrote. “These revolutionary masterpieces deliver a gripping story of retribution as Ryo Hazuki sets out to avenge his father’s death and attempts to unravel the secrets behind a mysterious artifact known as the Dragon Mirror.”
